I think 20% goes to debt service, 40% goes to bloated pensions and OPEB.
one needs to account for all gov’t extractions - federal, state, county, and local; plus a zillion other agencies. look at the fine print of a airline ticket - you get charged a few hundred just to be molested by security theater.
add in sales & property taxes ; don‘t forget to pay for your garage sale permit too.
If people added up how much the gov‘t extorts from them, they‘d be appalled.
Agree!
